Cat comics

From Krazy Kat to Simon’s Cat, felines have been featured in comics for decades.

Krazy Kat, created by American cartoonist George Herriman, was published daily in newspapers between 1913 and 1944. The detailed characterization of the strip, along with Herriman’s visual and verbal creativity, made Krazy Kat one of the first comics to be widely praised by intellectuals and treated as “serious” art.
